I agree! Something I’m really proud of for our program. Recently our transfers have been graduates already.

We did have the exodus of that 2017 class but that was really it.

Good riddance to LV 2017. Really rough era.

Talking about Karo reminds me to say that it's rare that a transfer from Tennessee has excelled at her new program, so it has been sweet to see both Karo and Marta do so well this season. Both left Tennessee is excellent standing, and so we can all feel good they've fared so well.

I won't mention any names, but I can think of a number of players from the past who possibly eventually regretted transferring from Tennessee based on pretty much disappearing from any mention, so these happy endings for these two particularly special young women make me smile.

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen Kim Mulkey just sitting on the bench not coaching or pacing the floor. Either she’s fed up with her team at the moment, or something else going on. So far, not impressed by LSU.

Are you impressed with anyone these days?

Well, I’m impressed by TN, UCLA and what Georgia Tech is looking like.

They are so flat today. If you want some beginnings of a drool, LSU has turned the ball over 19 times in under 3 quarters. Mulkey still really passive.

Yeah I’ve been watching. They turned up their defense and it made a difference. Gakdeng is a really nice player. Great athelticism and mobility. I’ve been perennially unimpressed with Ustby. She seems to play like this every time I watch her.

That's probably because she mostly doesn't show up when UNC when plays Top 25 teams. She literally runs her numbers up against the lower half of the ACC and struggles with top half of the ACC and her splits reflected that.

That’s what I’ve always thought too. Just the way she likes to play/score doesn’t tend to work against better prepared, more athletic teams. They put a lot of eggs in that basket so when she gets shutdown their offense evaporates.

Nivar is their most talented offensive player but seems she is on a tight leash all the time.

Zaay Green had another good game for Alabama today.

Kellie Harper is now an analyst on SEC Network

Brady is no good I said that last year. UConn has been duped a few times. DeBerry was the biggest disaster but I also wasn’t impressed with Poffenbarger or Brady in recent memory. Nowhere near as good as their billing out of HS.

Recruiting services see Geno watching someone and they immediately jump the line.

Agreed with the whole post but especially this.

The danger of stat padding on a cupcake. They play UConn next:
